MAKE ROOM

In the midst of the past meeting the future
The guarantee of time bringing change
Of nothing lasting forever
Reminders stand 
If you listen and look very carefully
You can hear and see the echos of the plantation
As the past falls away to the future

ECHOS OF THE PAST

 Facing your mistakes
And allowing acceptance 
Knowing that you cannot right all wrongs 
Though you try to live today better
Accepting yourself for what you are
But saying goodbye to ones you love
And forever will miss
Nostalgic dreams of what different paths may have lived
But will never be lives you lead 
Being okay with the direction that you walk
Weather ideal on the surface or below
Trying to not be lonely in lone days
Hearing echos of the past
Can be hard on your heart some days

IN MEMORY OF WINTER BRANCHES

Cold pounces await
Hungers to eat lamb
Claws curled
Death breezes
Farewell Hunting Tiger

 Warm cuddles await
Tame as a lamb
Softly curled
Breath breezes
Hello Sleeping Tiger

OLD TIME BOWLING GREEN IN A MODERN WORLD

Balancing companions
Stirring rebellions
Belonging wherever they are
As near to one another as far
One is calm the other is spice
Quietly loud with gentle advice

GRAVEYARDS

Pain has an element of blank, 
It cannot recollect
When it begun, or if there were 
A day when it was not-
-Emily Dickinson

WONDERBOY N TREASURE HUNTS

We are forever grateful that we were introduced to one the best boredom killers, treasure hunts. We have a wonderful person to thank for these. Even though Wonderboy had little faith in my ability to do it without help, I somehow prevailed. Although, I do admit that I learned quickly to set home coordinates as these hunts have taken us out into the middle of nowhere on a bunch of unfamiliar backroads.

BOREDOM KILLERS

Going fast down narrow, country roads, taking pictures while you do it.
